20 minIngredients
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2/3 cup/80 g cooked brown basmati rice
2 pounds/905 g organic ground chicken, ideally dark or thigh meat
1/2 cup/30 g chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/3 cup/45 g brown rice flour
1/4 cup/60 mL dry white wine (see note)
2 organic, pasture-raised, or antibiotic-free eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon ground fennel
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400°F/205°C. Coat a 9 by 13-inch/25 by 35 cm baking pan with the oil.
Place the rice in a food processor and process to finely chop, scraping down the bowl as necessary. Transfer the rice to a large bowl and add chicken, parsley, flour, wine, eggs, salt, fennel, and pepper, gently mixing until well combined.
With damp hands, roll the mixture into 1 ½-inch/4 cm balls, arranging them in the prepared baking pan. Bake until an internal thermometer in a meatball reads 165°F/75°C, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
